Hello! My name is Beckie. I have a craft/decor blog at Infarrantly Creative. I also co-write The CSI Project. I have been a blogger for 3 1/2 years and am so excited to launch Crafterminds.

We will go into more details soon regarding our top 10 piece of blogging advice but for now, here is my list.

Decide whether to monetize or not. If you ever want to monetize set it up that way. If you are thinking about one day possibly maybe making money set it to monetize right away. It can be a slight turn off when you go from no ads to lots of ads.

If you want to “be a blogger” blog consistently. I think most bloggers try to posts 4-6 times a week.

Always use a pictures even if it is stock photo.

Comment on other people’s blogs. Respond to people’s questions within 3 days.

Find your team! You can’t blog alone. You need to have a group of women who you can link arms with to grow your blogs together.

Have a nice design. Nothing says I am a beginner like a poorly designed blog with lots of buttons and junk.
